Nigeria eyes showdown against Ivory Coast

RUSTENBURG, South Africa (AP) -Nigeria started thinking about its quarterfinal matchup against tournament favorite Ivory Coast immediately after escaping elimination in Group C of the African Cup of Nations.

The two-time champions needed two late goals by Chelsea striker Victor Moses to beat Ethiopia 2-0 on Tuesday, setting up the encounter with Ivory Coast on Sunday in Rustenburg.

Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi says "there will be no second chance'' and that he already has "a plan'' to try to beat the star-filled Ivory Coast team.

The Elephants have already secured first place in Group D and will close play in the group against already eliminated Algeria on Wednesday.
